Gominolas y chuches

Where it comes from

Province-wide

Almería also has a colourful layer of candy: Epiphany sweets, Día de la Vieja treats, candyfloss and caramelised almonds at the Fair. This does not replace traditional baking; it is what visitors meet at fiestas, promenades and specialist shops.

For an urban stop, Piccolo Chuches is a shop dedicated to sweets, nuts and chocolates, with orders and delivery in Almería. Elisabel remains an online option rather than a tourist visit.
